A Florida A&M University business fraternity was suspended on Thursday after a hazing allegation surfaced from an off-campus gathering, university Interim President Larry Robinson announced Friday evening.

A report of members from the Alpha Kappa Psi Fraternity verbally abusing prospective members at an off-campus meeting prompted the suspension, according to Robinson. It is a violation of university policy for a club like the business fraternity to hold off-campus gatherings without an adviser, spokeswoman Sharon Saunders said.
